Rulings

  • If you transmute a card with mana cost {U}{U}, for example, you can search for any card in your library with converted mana cost 2. It doesn't matter what type or colors that card is.
  • You don't need to have another card with the same converted mana cost in your library to play the transmute ability, and you don't need to find a card even if there is one.
